Depressed

Because of the coronavirus, we’ve had to make changes to how Childline works to keep our staff and volunteers safe.

This means that from tomorrow evening (Friday 20th March), you won’t be able to speak to a Childline counsellor on the phone or online after midnight. You’ll still be able to send a message from your locker and use other parts of the website.

Childline will be open again each morning at 9am and you’ll be able to call and use 1-2-1 chats from then.

Our night service is open as normal tonight, but please be aware that it might take longer than usual to get through to a counsellor.

Calling Childline on 0800 1111 is the fastest way to get through to us. In an emergency you should always call 999.
